Detroit — The new year has brought a new mindset for the Pistons, after a disappointing start to the season. They could be playing their best stretch of the season, with three wins in their last five games. Make it four in the last six. The Pistons overcame a 22-point first-half deficit and pushed out to
Detroit — Acting coach Rex Kalamian cracked a smile when he was asked about the trade that sent veteran guard Rodney McGruder to the Denver Nuggets for Bol Bol. Along with the smile came some effusive praise for McGruder, 30, who joined the Pistons in free agency before last season. Before Kalamian said anything about Bol,
The Detroit Pistons, similar to the rest of the sports world, have been mired in a COVID-19 outbreak. Nine Pistons players have entered the NBA’s health and safety protocols since Dec. 22, and several assistant coaches and staff members have also tested positive.

Detroit — For the Pistons, trying to rebuild their roster will take some time, patience and a few gambles on young players. They’re not going to get there simply by losing and taking easy stabs at lottery picks in the NBA Draft. That’s the long road to trying to build a winning team, and from what
Trade season has officially arrived. The Detroit Pistons made their first move of the season Sunday, sending Rodney McGruder and a 2022 second-round pick to the Denver Nuggets in exchange for Bol Bol, a league source confirmed to the Free Press. The 2022 pick is a pick the Pistons acquired from the Brooklyn Nets. TRENDING:
The Pistons aren’t waiting until the trade deadline to tinker with their roster. They are finalizing a deal with the Denver Nuggets to acquire 7-foot-2 forward Bol Bol, a league source familiar with the details told The Detroit News on Sunday. The source requested anonymity because the trade has not been finalized. The Pistons will
The Detroit Pistons‘ win over the Orlando Magic on Saturday felt like a bookend, of sorts, for the franchise after an eventful few weeks. They’ve had nine players enter health and safety protocols since Dec. 22, and until this past Monday, were relying on eight G League players to fill in the gaps. Six members
The Detroit Pistons have rarely been in the national spotlight this season. They’re one of two teams that have yet to reach double-digit wins, so that’s probably for the best. Casual NBA fans want to watch stars. Local NBA fans want to watch winning basketball. The Pistons offer neither. It makes sense they’ve only played one
